Lulwah Al-Homoud
Lulwah Al-Homoud (Arabic: لولوة الحمود; born 1967) is a Saudi Arabian artist, calligrapher, and curator. She lives in the United Kingdom.[1]
She was born in Riyadh and studied sociology at King Saud University, going on to receive a MA from the Central Saint Martins College of Art and Design.[2] Al-Homoud has trained with Pakistani calligrapher Rasheed Butt. She takes inspiration from Egyptian calligrapher Ahmed Moustafa.[3]
Al-Homoud uses Arabic letters to create complex abstract patterns on paper using geometric forms and mixed media.[3][4] She was a co-curator and also exhibited in the 2008 Edge of Arabia exhibition at the Brunei Gallery of SOAS, University of London.[2] Her work has been included in exhibitions in China, Korea, New York City, Paris, Germany, Switzerland, Saudi Arabia, Dubai, Bahrain and Beirut.
